ReplyDeleteSuch a clever and useful tip, thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteI have this thing for dry methi powder that I itch to add it in everything! I love the warm kick it adds to the dishes. Making ones own is so much good but with so much dust here, I seldom make my own and rely on the store brought ones.
